About this site

Watamula sits at the northwestern tip of Curaçao, off the Netherlands Antilles coast in the southern Caribbean, where the island's rugged limestone shoreline meets deep open water. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 30 metres and is rated an intermediate dive. It is more exposed than the sheltered leeward sites further south, and divers have flagged strong current, deep sections, and exposed conditions here. Lionfish, nurse sharks, and wrasse have been spotted on the reef, though the point is as much defined by its open-water exposure as by what swims through it.
